仲zhòng弓gōng问wèn仁rén。子zǐ曰yuē，出chū门mén如rú见jiàn大dà宾bīn，使shǐ民mín如rú承chéng大dà祭jì，己jǐ所suǒ不bú欲yù，勿wù施shī于yú人rén，在zài邦bāng无wú怨yuàn，在zài家jiā无wú怨yuàn。仲zhòng弓gōng曰yuē，雍yōng虽suī不bù敏mǐn，请qǐng事shì斯sī语yǔ矣yǐ。

James Legge 英译

Chung-kung asked about perfect virtue. The Master said, "It is, when you go abroad, to behave to every one as if you were receiving a great guest; to employ the people as if you were assisting at a great sacrifice; not to do to others as you would not wish done to yourself; to have no murmuring against you in the country, and none in the family." Chung-kung said, "Though I am deficient in intelligence and vigour, I will make it my business to practise this lesson."
